For example
Ellos no saben cuándo van a llegar
Ellos no saben que lleguen?
Yo no sé cuándo van a llegar
Yo no sé que lleguen/llegarán?
They all have an element of doubt in which would suggest the subjunctive but there is a rule here that I am not understanding fully!
Thanks

Hola,
Los mariscos en Grecia estaban riquísimos
I would have said eran riquísimos - because it's a characteristic.
Why am I wrong? :)
Gracias,
Why is "Te los voy a comprar." only nearly correct? Isn't this structure as correct as "Voy a comprartelos."?
Hola,
I don't understand how 'debido a que' is a wrong answer in the test for this question?
Ella dejó a su marido ________ su mal humor y sus celos.She left her husband because of his bad temper and jealousy.
I guess it's because it's a combination of nouns (humor, celos) without any further embellishment, but it's confused me because of the explanation referring to a noun, rather than nouns plural:
"If we use debido a que, it can never be followed just by a noun, it needs a phrase."
Gracias,
The lesson is clear that "bueno" in front of a noun means "great," but simply "good" if after the noun. So the instruction is that this girl simply wants a good man. But the "correct" choice is "un buen hombre"!
This is marked wrong with continúa as the answer (my answer), yet continúa is the correct answer for the present tense and according to your own "help" text. There seems to be a lot of sloppy "teaching" in Progress Spanish lately.
Sometimes the answers require the feminine 'a' but there isn't any context in the question as to the gender of the subject.
Unless I'm mistaken, which is highly probable :)
cheers
